Looking for a taste of Icelandic nature without spending a full day on the road?
This private half-day adventure from Reykjavik gives you the freedom to choose what kind of Icelandic experience you want to have.
Would you like to take a scenic hike to a spectacular waterfall? Explore a steaming geothermal landscape that feels far from the city? Walk through dramatic volcanic lava fields? Or finish your adventure with a relaxing soak in a natural hot spring?
You choose the experience — and we take care of the rest.
Your private guide will help select the best location for your chosen experience based on the weather, conditions, season, and your interests. The exact location is not fixed in advance, allowing us to choose the right experience for the day rather than forcing every group into the same itinerary.
Chase a Waterfall
Put on your hiking shoes and follow a scenic trail through Icelandic wilderness to a beautiful waterfall. Depending on conditions and your preferences, your walk may take you through a dramatic canyon, across open landscapes, or into a peaceful valley.
Explore Geothermal Iceland
Walk through a landscape where the earth is alive beneath your feet. Discover steaming ground, colourful mineral deposits, bubbling mud, and the unmistakable signs of Iceland’s geothermal forces. Some locations are surprisingly close to Reykjavik yet feel like you have travelled deep into the Icelandic Highlands.
Walk Through New Lava
Experience Iceland’s volcanic landscape up close and see how recent eruptions have transformed the land. Walk across dramatic lava terrain, surrounded by the raw textures and colours of freshly formed volcanic landscapes.
Soak in a Natural Hot Spring
Trade your hiking boots for a swimsuit and enjoy a relaxing walk through a geothermal valley before reaching a naturally heated river. Surrounded by mountains, steam, and open Icelandic landscapes, it is an unforgettable way to experience Iceland’s geothermal nature.
Because this is a private tour, there is no fixed list of stops.
We consider what you would most like to experience, then your guide chooses the best option available on the day. Weather, trail conditions, seasonal access, volcanic activity, and your group’s interests all help determine where your adventure takes you.
The result is a more personal experience — one that is shaped around you, rather than a standard itinerary.
Whether you want a little hiking, a taste of Iceland’s volcanic landscape, a glimpse of geothermal activity, or a peaceful soak in nature, this is your chance to experience the wild side of Iceland without committing to a full-day tour.

Yes. This is a private experience, so the itinerary can be adapted according to weather, road conditions, current conditions, opening hours, and your interests.
We aim to include views of the most interesting and accessible recent lava landscapes, but access can change due to volcanic activity, safety restrictions, and official closures.
In Iceland, there is no guarantee of the same kind of weather will be the whole day, even though there is beautiful morning during the pick-up in Reykjavík. Keep in mind that the weather can change very suddenly and you might just experience all four seasons in one day. So be well-prepared and bring plenty of layers.
In Grindavík we will stop for Lunch.
The Civil Protection Department and emergency management are constantly monitor the area and informs of any updates. Sudden changes can therefore occur e.g. due to unfavorable wind direction and gas formation. We obey all such recommendations every time, but in general the area is open for puplic.
When booking the tour, you can add on and pay for the Sky Lagoon. If you do not add this on when booking we presume you do not want to go there, and want to be dropped off in Reykjavik instead.
